    Great Collection.

    Do you pick them up at CMP? Been thinking about picking up a few that are coming back from Greece.
    LOL

    That's what I was just thinking.

    Pretty nice collection.

    Reminds me of a shooting instructor at a boyscout camp. Stayed after talking to him, he said he used to have a complete collection of m1 carbines, one from every manufacturer, unfortunately Jersey made him sell them.

    Wow! That is an amazing collection.
    I would love to see some more pics as well.

    I just bought my first Garand (Springfield Armory)
    It is a blast to shoot.... Literally. LOL
    Great rifle, and I love it.

    Very nice collection! How often do you shoot them? How accurate is the 308 in that rifle at 300-500 yards?

    I was wondering about the .308 in that rifle as well.
    I have not seen many in .308, but all that is required is a barrel change.
    The guy I bought my Garand from, had .308 barrels for sale.

    I have been looking at a couple of new Springfields in 308 and am curious. For the money they are getting for them I can buy another EBR of very high quality.

    But there is kust something about them that just keeps calling my name.
